Husband is meanypegs

Belleweather · 25/10/2023 22:33

I'm naturally very blonde, platinum. Menopause causing hair thinness and my DD cut my very long hair off for me to a chin length blunt bob 3 weeks ago. I'm only 49 Ffs. Today my husband (? Hmm) said to guests at a dinner that he thought I looked like Jimmy Saville. AIBU to never like him again? Utterly humiliated. I am a lot younger than him and he has done this sort of thing before. So hurt and embarrassed, Considering shaving my head.

Do you usually have this relationship? Would he just think it's a joke and that it would not upset you or did he say it to upset you

Meanypegs made me laugh out loud before I'd even opened this

Must have been a shock for you when the thread turned out to be a very serious story about a nasty cunt then.

Meanypegs? What fresh hell is this phrase?

🤣🤣🤣

Can you fix it for me to visit a Donkey sanctuary, please?

IDontLoveTheWayYouLie · 25/10/2023 23:45

@KingsleyBorder the words meanypegs and prickypegs made me laugh on here but yes, he was definitely a cunt.

PyongyangKipperbang · 25/10/2023 23:45

He is a dick, yes.

However.........your language is very childish and silly.

duchiebun · 25/10/2023 23:47

Well does it look like his hair?

Now now, dont be meanypegs

Rinkydinkydoodle · 25/10/2023 23:50

Is he generally an edge-lord? My brother used to say when I was about fourteen that I looked like Rose West (I sort of did, I stopped wearing my glasses after that) but I think where that crosses the line for me is that it’s a humiliating thing to say, especially in public. And a spouse is different from a sibling, they’re supposed to make you feel loved and valued. I think I’d want him to know he’d crossed a line there. It’s pretty cruel, particularly given who Saville was, and why you’d to cut your hair. Don’t shave your head, I’m sure you look cool.

He sounds like a dick but meanypegs? Makes you sound like you’re making it light hearted to be honest…I’m also now imagining you saying that to him in a babyish voice which makes me really uncomfortable 😀😀

Meanypegs ??? Ffs man. Lost me when u said that.

foxlover47 · 26/10/2023 01:16

Wear a shell suit , grab a cigar and rock the hell out of the blonde Bob

DeeCeeCherry · 26/10/2023 01:22

Of all people, he chose to call you Jimmy Saville? I cant stand men who make their wives the butt of their jokes publicly. I never laugh, I just think you fucking insecure idiot. Normally the men theyre making these jokes to, arent taking the piss out of their wives. I've noticed that. DP wouldnt ever say/do such a thing but my comeback would be so swift if he did. You'll have to think something up. Mocking someone's appearance is never a cool thing to do.

Hooplahooping · 26/10/2023 01:24

‘Unfortunately, now that he’s getting on a bit, the only way he can get it up is if I put on my shell suit and offer to fix it for him” would be an ideal retort if he ever tries that again…

I had to ask DP to stop wearing a certain pair of glasses he had anytime he'd shaved his head and grown a longer beard because he looked too much like Gary Glitter and once I'd seen it I couldn't unsee it.
